We Are All Ears!
We’d like to hear from you …

We want to do everything possible to make your experience at HSBV the best it can be. So please tell us what we are doing that makes you happy or if there’s something we could be doing better. It only takes a few minutes.

Please do not use this form to request a HOLD on an animal.
We do not yet have an online process to accept holds. If you wish to place an animal on HOLD, please call 303-442-4030 during our regular shelter hours to speak to an animal welfare associate.
